Bug Description

Binary package hint: pidgin

I have a group in Pidgin called "Göteborg". After upgrading to Tribe5 (via update-manager -d) it showed up as "Göteborg". I tried to rename it back, which seemed to wrok. But every time I start Pidgin now, both groups show up. I've tried deleting the offending group several times, but it keeps coming back.

The groups does not contain exactly the same members, the broken one contains a subset of the correctly named one. Turns out that all the ones that show up in both are ICQ/AIM accounts.

Worked well up till Feisty, with both Gaim and Pidgin (which I think I got from getdeb).
